There is no doubt that the Marcos administration oversimplifies the great power competition. "Currently, small frictions are much favorable than major events in the South China Sea for the US." Yes, the US is stepping up competition with China, but not as the rhythm of Manila

SCS Arbitration ruling VS Kalayaan Islands claim. In order to enforce the ruling, the Philippine new maritime zone act effectively waived the Kalayaan's claim, which means that the PH has given up 70,000 km² of sea area and sovereignty over some features of Kalayaan's claim.

This kind of unbalanced statement is of no use or significance, other than reinforces Beijing's perception that the United States is behind everything and exacerbates Manila's miscalculation of the situation. state.gov/u-s-support-fo…

I'm just curious, how did @AsiaMTI determine that all these ships were maritime militias.

It also needs confirmation from the US side as that not all U.S. warships' operations within 12 nautical miles of the Spratly features are FONOPs.

While China and the Philippines are frequently confronting over Second Thomas Shoal, Vietnam is quietly making some major breakthrough in the land reclamation in the Spratly Islands. Up to now, 3.22km² has already been expanded.

My suggestion for guardrail: "To break the deadlock, building effective crisis management between CN and US could start with the uncontested high seas in order to minimize the interference from sovereignty and national security issues. " @Diplomat_APAC thediplomat.com/2023/11/china-…

According to both China and Canada, there are at least three reasons why the helicopter was intercepted near the Paracel Islands on Oct 29: 1) Approaching to Paracels airspace with unknown intention. 2) Refuse to communicate, non-adherence to CUES. 3) Extreme low-altitude flying

When the US accuses the PLA of dangerous interceptions, it should see how close its aircraft are to Chinese territorial airspace or exercise areas. Surely, safe distances both for close reconnaissance and interception are needed to discuss. scspi.org/en/dtfx/real-r…

The Canadian Air Force looks like a fresh driver, which does not understand the complexities of Asia-Pacific airspace well. Aside from CH and JP air forces, this Canadian surveillance aircraft may have been the only one to enter the airspace of the Diaoyu islands in last decade.

Although it cannot help but be seen as helping China whitewash, I would still say that such encounters and some levels of confrontation are common around the occupied features in the Spratly Islands among the claimants. The Philippines is obvious too sensitive and overacted.

FAKE NEWS or faulty intelligence! In the event of such an accident, would it be possible to keep it secret? Have some common sense. mol.im/a/12589593 via @MailOnline
